1.35.3 Documentation
The online bookshelf provided with Dialogic
®
System Release 6.0 PCI for Windows
®
contains information about all system release features including features for application
development, configuration, administration, and diagnostics.
For detailed information about configuring DM3 boards, see the Dialogic
®
DM3
Architecture PCI Products on Windows
®
Configuration Guide.
Note: The online bookshelf has not been updated for these features, so the Dialogic
®
DM3
Architecture PCI Products on Windows
®
Configuration Guide does not currently include
information about the PDK Configuration property sheet or about automatic FCD file
generation.
1.36 New Option for dm3post Utility
With the Service Update, the dm3post diagnostic utility now provides an option to run
POST on a chassis level. By using the chassis option (-c), dm3post will retrieve the results
of the last run POST for all Dialogic
®
DM3 Boards in the chassis. By using the chassis
option with the reset (-r) option, you can run POST on all DM3 Boards in the system.
When using the chassis option, it is not necessary to provide the bus and slot numbers.
Any option other than the reset option will be ignored when using the chassis option. In
addition to output on the screen, more detailed output is logged to a log file, dm3post.log,
by default.
For more information about the dm3post utility, see the Dialogic
®
System Software
Diagnostics Guide.
1.37 New OAMIPC Mechanism Replaces CORBA
With the Service Update, a new OAMIPC mechanism replaces CORBA and CORBA will
no longer be used. This mechanism changes the binary size of the oam binaries. The ooc
directory under the dialogic directory will be removed if you are doing an upgrade install,
or the ooc directory will not be installed in case of a new installation.
As part of the new OAMIPC, the TCP Port List for new installation and upgrade installation
has changed. For new installations, you will see the Welcome screen with the message
“Exclusive access to TCP ports 12001, 12004-5 for the loopback interface, and port 12002
for all network interfaces is required so ensure that these ports are available on your
system.”
If you are performing an upgrade installation, you will not see the message, but you will
still have to check that these TCP ports are available before you perform the upgrade.
